Default sorting hybrid text/numbers/dashes

Hello

I have a table with a column where the format is Chapter-Page#letter, e.g.
23-142a, 24-11b

I've been trying to get it to sort so it sorts Chapter number, then page
number, then a,b,c etc. No matter what I try, it will not work properly. It
won't sort the first number correctly.

What's the proper set up for this sort?
Thanks
Andrew
